“My name is Carmen and I have been a wheelchair user for a short time. I’mconcerned about the effort required to help me. It is not just getting out of bed, butalso transferring to the toilet and the shower, and then returning to bed to getdressed. These manoeuvres are exhausting and dangerous for me. In my smallhome, every movement of the wheelchair takes a great deal of effort. I think that if Iam already in the sling, it would be easier and saferto transfer directly to the toiletand the shower, and then return to bed all in one go.”
